The theme of this work is to summarize knowledge about protein restriction factors, which function in cells infected by small DNA viruses of families Hepadnaviridae, Parvoviridae, Polyomaviridae and Papillomaviridae. Both restriction factors induced by interferon and restriction factors of intrinsic immunity which are constitutively produced in cells are included in this work. At the same time, mechanisms by which viruses overcome the inhibition effects of restriction factors are mentioned. Restriction factors suppressing Hepatitis B virus infection like components of PML nuclear bodies and proteins Smc5/6, SAMHD1, APOBEC, TRIM, ZAP and Tetherin are described. For the representatives of Parvoviridae family, deaminases APOBEC and PML protein were identified as restriction factors. For the infection by polyomaviruses, restriction factors FAM111A and SRSF1 were described. Restriction by PML nuclear bodies and its component Sp100 and proteins APOBEC, IFI16 and IFIT1 is discussed for the Papillomaviridae family. Keywords: small DNA viruses, intracellular DNA sensing, restriction factors, viral antagonistic mechanisms |
